Iris Awards Finalist!
I’m feeling pretty nervous today! Tonight is the opening night of the PCP Iris Award Exhibition… and I’m in it!
Two weeks ago I received a phone call letting me know that I was a finalist for the Iris Award for Contemporary Portraiture. It’s run by the Perth Centre for Photography, a local organisation promoting photography and emerging talent. It’s a huge deal for me, because it’s judged by both professional photographers and artists with a strong grounding in contemporary photography and art history.
It doesn’t help that I’ve seen some of the other finalists (and rejected entries) and they were just awesome.
All I can say is, “I’m not worthy!” and, “They Like Me, They Really Like Me!!!”.
Barn Unfinished Breakfast : My entry for the Perth Centre for Photography Iris Award for Contemporary Portraiture... What a mouthful!
The secret of my success? Having really cute kids and taking way more photos than any human being should reasonably be allowed to.
Seriously, if there was a tax on megapixels the IRS and ATO would be hunting me down.
